Were Jesus temptations in the gospel enough?

I know the Apostle Paul mention that Jesus was tempted in every way just as we are, but why didn't the gospels writers express it? Why only three temptations that no one has been tempted with? Have you been tempted to turn stones into bread or jump off a cliff or worship Satan? Come on, whey not more temptations? Why didn't the gospel writers include more. I don't know about you, but at times I feel that Jesus was out of touch with the temptations I face. Do you feel that way? Why didn't they share more the temptations with us? Why is it only Paul who says he was tempted in every way? Shouldn't have Jesus Himself shared more of what He went through as a man? Was Jesus tempted with hate? Was Jesus tempted with lust? Was Jesus tempted to get revenge? Lie? Cheat? Steal? Cuss? What do you think? Share your thoughts.

Jesus was tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin (Hebr.4:15).
So there isn't anything He doesn't know, after all it is Him who sends the tempter to your door and to anyone of us so that after being trialled and tested, we will shine brightly in this evil and wicked world, and then we will know who is born of God and who is born of the evil one (1 John 3:9-10).

At the temptation of Jesus He said "It is written" ( Mat.4:10).

When we are tempted, what do we say?

Jesus said, I write to you that you sin no more (1 John 2:1), and when you sin, you have an advocate (a layer) who mediates between you and God.

When (not if) you are tempted and call upon His Name He will not abandon you but quickly will come to your aid and rescue you out of all your troubles and leave you unscathed.

The problem is, if you don't know God, on whom will you call?
On God? On which God?
On Allah? On Jehovah? On Yahweh? On Buddha? Or on a nameless God of your own making?
The Bible says, that whoever shall call on the Name of Jesus shall be saved.
Paul

"Was Jesus tempted with hate"?

I think that hate is not a temptation, just like love is not a temptation.
Are there any other thoughts on that?

(Mat.12:34) Jesus said, "You brood of vipers", and I don't think that He loves those vipers.

(Rom.9:13) He said that He loved Jacob and hated Esau, also He hates all evil doers.
So then I think that hate and love is a disposition.
Paul

This is an organism that develops a symbiotic relationship with another plant that is capable of a photosynthetic reaction. Sometimes, like it, I've been the sole "bird" out in a park, or a trail in bad conditions. Compound light microscopes use lenses to focus light. Unlike family, we really do choose the friends we keep in our lives. These disorders also manifest differently in each individual woman.
